Topics at ATS range from the latest threads and heated debates about mainstream media's going-gently-down-the-stream news, loud booms in the sky and under the earth, major die-offs of species hopefully leading to gleefully anticipated global destruction, hot women - real or just alien-enduced internet fantasy - and the newest and oldest in political, governmental, and incidental [[UnNews:911 conspiracies explained by a sandwich|conspiracies]]. And that's just their warm up act. They then go on to report on wars and rumors of rumors of wars, and write about "Look over there!" when other media outlets tell us to "Look over here!". Oddly, ATS allows no mention of "drugs", even though a healthy percentage of their [[Hippies|users]] are solidly and significantly [[California Marijuana Initiative|stoned]] when they come to visit.

An ATS user finally figures out who killed the Kennedy brothers - Rose Kennedy! - and contemplates his next edit.

On one hand, Above Top Secret (pronounced ATS) is a conspiracy, science, and breaking news website manned by some of the brightest unemployed people on the planet.

On the another hand, it's a place where distracting ads try to grab your attention and further cripple your sense of keeping your wallet closed (some ads actually float up out of nowhere and defy all attempts to capture or kill them). And on the last hand, sticky with bodily fluids but the one that holds all the cards, ATS is a site occupied by inmates of mental hospitals and/or security agencies monitoring the populace to see where the crazy will go next.

The site is inhabited by thousands of geeks, administrators, scientists, pre-teens and pre-memes, and by good and bad writers of all descriptions and professions. It's inhibited by mothers calling their sons up to dinner. The smart people on ATS diligently research, report, and expose the outlandishness and wonders popping up all around us, and the still smarter ones dig in to research and expose the secrets from the deepest,

darkest lurky-holes of history, science, and space.

The not-so-smart people who troll ATS give it a go anyway, and come away with some friendly advice: STFU!

Hello, any girls out there? Girls who long for emotional fulfillment? Here's your chance to pick up an intellectually liberated, probably obese and/or dehydrated layabout, who can type, do research, formulate exotic theories, and make the best chip dip that a little money can buy.

Topics at ATS range from heated debates about mainstream media's bland going-gently-down-the-stream news, loud booms in the sky and under the earth, major die-offs of species and associated falling rocks hopefully leading to gleefully anticipated global destruction, hot women - real or just alien-enduced internet fantasy - and the newest and oldest in political, governmental, and incidental conspiracies.

If anyone tells you that ghosts can drive a UFO, they probaby aren't doing it on ATS, which doesn't put up very well with stupid.

good data got through the dumb-down filter laid across the net by "The Man" and "His Woman".

And, as an alien-reengineered added bonus, when you log-in you get to see users avatars - some creepy ones, power mad ones, sexy ones, beautifulones, but mostly scary ones - and you can award "flags", "stars", and "geese" to threads and comments that you like and/or agree with.
